H C Edwards Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 I was thinking of trying the Phillips Vision Plus H7 bulb in my GS. I'm unable to find a US source on the internet, and no local car parts stores stock them. Anybody know of a source ? Link to comment
Bob Palin Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 You might try spelling Philips with one L for your search, it's still mostly UK and European suppliers but these people did turn up http://www.murphskits.com/H7.htm I know nothing about them at all. Link to comment
steve404 Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 I get my bulbs from http://www.powerbulbs.co.uk They have always been fast. I still use the Vision Plus even with HID dimmed lights. Link to comment
Ken H. Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 Not aware of one in the US, but don't be shy about ordering from powerbulbs in the UK. Their service in shipping to the US is excellent. I've ordered from them a number of times with never a hitch. Link to comment
johnt650 Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 Be sure the bulbs available in the US are the same spec. Originally they were not available in the US because they are out of US specs. Link to comment
DavidEBSmith Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 I'll also recommend Powerbulbs. Orders from them get here faster from the UK than other stuff gets here from within the US. The only issue I've had with ordering from them was that one of my credit cards wouldn't work for an overseas internet order, but that was the credit card's issue, not Powerbulbs. Plus, I use the AllWeather H3 bulbs in my low-beam auxiliary lights, and every so often, Powerbulbs has a deal where they throw in one or two of those free with an order. So I have an extensive stock of yellow H3 bulbs for free. And the blue marker bulb that they throw in free at other times is the bulb that fits the city light under the headlight on my RT, so when than burned out, I didn't have to run to the store to buy one.

H C Edwards Posted October 11, 2005 Author Share Posted October 11, 2005 Thanks, everybody. I ordered a pair from the place in California, from Gregory's link. They were the cheapest, and when I called, they had them in stock. Link to comment
